Chapter 878: To Save or Not to Save?
Those that remain in the dents at the foot of the bed are not blood stains at all, but a special kind of secretion.
Remember that what Miriam gained through bloodline transformation is the transformation ability of the poisonhorn.
This magical creature resembles a rhinoceros that has grown several times, especially its horns, which are not only very thick and hard, but also have poison sacs that store explosives at the base of their horns, which looks very terrifying.
And it is this creature that secretes a bodily fluid that attracts the opposite sex every mating season.
Among them, the smell of the male's secretion is quite strong, but it is easy to volatilize and disperse; The female's secretions smell mild, but they can stay in the air for a long time, allowing the smelling male to follow her all the way and find her location.
Of course, because of this, the male poisonhorn will always fight during the tracking, and it will usually end with one person injuring or even killing the other.
As a result, the number of poisonhorns will never go up - after all, they will only give birth to one cub per litter.
As for now...... Maca suddenly realized that Miriam seemed to be desperate to wipe the secretion on the foot of the copper tube bed, hoping that someone would find her extremely subtle signal for help.
"Even though the discharge is red, it'...... How did she come up with it? Could it be that you can still transform in that lounge? β
It wasn't too difficult for Maca to follow the scent like the male venomhorn. He was hesitating now, but whether he wanted to go or not.
Last time, he let Miriam and Asaph leave, and although Miriam didn't ask him to protect him, he kept his opinion knowing that the two were most likely to be caught by Helbo.
So, this time......
Seriously, he still didn't want to go. Because a plan is now in front of him, he doesn't want to add uncertainty to the plan out of thin air at this time.
But is it really good to think so?
Maca had rummaged through his pocket a few vials of materials he needed, and by mixing them together, he could improvise a half-finished potion that could smell like that.
But he just pinched a few large and small bottles between his fingers, contemplating a series of pros and cons and people's hearts.
After a while, he said secretly:
"The reason why she was allowed to leave England with Asaph was because Helbo would not let her die until he got what he wanted. However, now, it is difficult to say whether you will die or not......"
When life is at stake, the nature of many things changes subtly, doesn't it?
"It seems that your 'Grandpa Laven' is much more ruthless than me!"
Maca took out the cauldron on the spot, poured a few ingredients into it, and then directly used magic to start heating and mixing. In just over ten minutes, he scraped the powder out of the pot, and then put the bottles and cans back into his waist pocket.
It's not much, but it's up to him to use it, and that's enough.
Under the control of the levitation charm, the powder flew with ease, and soon found some traces at the entrance to this space at the Heeberch School of Magic.
The smell of the secretion is catalyzed by the powder, revealing a hazy pink color that extends all the way to the door that serves as the entrance.
Leaving from this entrance, the traces of the smell gradually faded in a certain direction, and then turned into a small alley that looked a little deep.
And when Maca continued to follow the trail around a few corners, the smell finally disappeared.
To be honest, he thought it was good, because at first he thought he might soon find a break point in the smell. But the fact is that he followed all the way for such a long distance before discovering the other party's spatial movement position.
At this point, Helbo may not have gone far...... Even, during this period of time, when the International Federation of Wizards was stationed to investigate and maintain stability, he stayed nearby and secretly observed.
If he really found another place to build a foundation, I'm afraid that after taking Miriam, he would immediately move to another country.
Putting such thoughts aside for a moment, Maca calmed down and sensed the remaining fluctuations in the mana.
It's a pity that since Helbo took Miriam away, the spatial movement magic he used must be quite reliable. Even if Maca's ability to sense magic increased after the Soul Rules progressed, it was impossible to find anything here.
What's more, it should have been a lot of time since the other party moved from here.
Fortunately, when Helpo was taking Miriam away, there were really no fewer companions. It was in this remote alley that Maca discovered several remnants of the magic reaction, which were much more pronounced than Helbo's own!
Obviously, at that time, Helbo's remaining "men" also followed him.
ββ¦β¦ Sure enough, it's still in Haifa City. β
After confirming the information contained in the vague magic fluctuations, Maca no longer hesitated, and went straight to the position he had just analyzed.
"At least it did, and although it was mixed with uncertainties, it wasn't completely without benefits."
β¦β¦
"Dang Chang...... When the ...... When the ...... is long"
From one room to another, there was no difference except that the furnishings became more rudimentary. The same inability to leave, the same dreary and silent, the same windowless.
Miriam reclined in the corner, shackles against the water pipes by the wall, making a hollow echo.
It wasn't like she hadn't had this kind of confinement training before, and she had even tried a completely dark cold dungeon. But she felt that she had never felt such exhaustion and pain as she did today.
Because, although the training in the past was extremely hard, she still has a lot to remember at that time. But now, she doesn't want to think back to those "good times" at all.
And this is entirely because "Grandpa Laven" actually abandoned her.
Could it be that all the laughter and laughter of the past years were actually false? Could it be that Grandpa Ravan adopted them just to take advantage of them?
If he hadn't chosen to transform his bloodline and become a dead soldier, would his current situation be different?
Miriam had given up thinking about these questions, just as she had given up the memories first. Because she knows that every time she thinks about it, it is equivalent to poking a hole in her heart, and the pain is so painful that she can't help herself.
However, it is precisely because she has nothing to remember that this loneliness and loneliness seem so difficult. She is no longer a dead soldier, and now she is just an ordinary woman.
"Clickβ"
Hearing the sound of the deadbolt being tightened in the doorway, Miriam temporarily stopped tapping the water pipe with her shackles and slowly turned her head to look over there.
Is it time to eat again?
The man who had delivered food earlier in Heyberg had become one of many stone carvings, and it was hard for her to see them even if she wanted to.
And now this one was actually a schoolgirl from Heeberg.
It's a pity that the little girl who may have lived a relaxed school life not long ago has now become a butcher's knife held in someone's hand and may plunder the lives of others at any time.
Seeing the little girl who was not tall lay the tray on the table blankly, and then walked out as wordlessly as last time, Miriam couldn't help but purse her lips.
She had tried to communicate with the other party yesterday, but like the wizard she had been, she couldn't communicate at all.
But even so, she still didn't want to let this opportunity slip away.
"Wait! You-"
Since the wizard, Miriam has tried many times, but never achieved anything. So she didn't expect that when the person who came to deliver her food really gave a normal reaction, it would make her shudder.
"Huh?"
The girl who was about to leave the room turned around and looked indifferently at Miriam with a cold and gloomy gaze, her slightly pale lips looking like a dead corpse.
Miriam subconsciously shrank back - it was obvious that she took the initiative to stop the other party, but at this time, she didn't know what to say.
ββ¦β¦ Y-Can you get me out of here? β
Unexpectedly, Miriam's words did not get a response from the other party. Maybe it's too straightforward to ask, which makes Miriam complain about her communication level for the first time in her life, and she almost forgot even the most basic set.
The little girl looked at her as if she had not heard her, but looked at her quietly for a moment, and then turned and walked out of the room again.
When the door was shut, Miriam sat on the floor for a long time, then got up and went to the table to fill her empty belly.
But she didn't know that after the girl who delivered the food just now closed the door, she immediately turned a corner and walked along the aisle outside to the other end.
It wasn't until she reached the end of the basement that she stopped. And in the shadows in the corner at the end, there was another looming figure.
"I just brought her something to eat, and she stopped me and asked if I could let her go."
"Did you have any answers?"
"No, I thought about it, and still didn't say anything."
"Well, you're doing a great job...... Let's go back first! β
The two of them spoke, but saw a phantom flash in front of the girl's forehead, and the expression on her face changed back to its original numbness, and there was no longer the agility of her speech.
On the other side, the figure that almost melted into the shadows watched the girl turn away, and only withdrew her gaze when she couldn't see it.
In the next moment, his figure, which was already unrecognizable, disappeared completely, and it was difficult to find a trace again.
It was an underground hallway with rooms, but above it was a normal Muggle building. Helbo and his men hid there, silently observing all the changes in the city of Haifa. ()
